In the end, this is probably the last major spike of news
attention for Andrew Wakefield. Sure, in his new role as spokesperson
for a consortium of vaccines-cause-autism
organizations, he will get in the news again. And there will be at
least one more BMJ article. But, what else is there? His research
efforts even before he was let go by Thoughtful House were unimpressive
to say the least (remember the Monkey study that used 2 controls and
claimed that unvaccinated infant monkey brains shouldn't grow, but the
vaccinated ones should?). Perhaps he will be a study author on the
Generation Rescue "vaccinated/unvaccinated" study. Even that won't gain
him the notoriety of his Lancet paper. With the paper debunked, his
ethical violations in pursuing that paper and others proven by the GMC
hearing and, now, the entire effort described as fraudulent, what's
left? Not much. – LeftBrain RightBrain
